The First Joker 2 Details Sound Completely Nuts

[Peter Paltridge]

I was one of the few who did not rush out to see Joker when it opened, because based on what I’d learned about the plot, it did not sound like a “me” kind of film. It sounded monumentally depressing, and I don’t do depressing. Or at the least, I don’t deliberately go out and pay someone money to make me depressed for an entire afternoon or evening.

Gaga can pull off the Brooklyn accent because she is New Yorker but can she pull off a whimsical child like character like Harley?

I don't see Gaga as Harley. Weird Casting. They could have cast someone like Alexa Bliss or Samara Weaving
